Me and ma took my sister Gladdises baby out for a ride in his baby car- ridge this afternoon, and we saw Leroy Shoosters mother pushing his sisters baby, .,ma saying to me, She'll be ser- prised to heer that Willie is crawling | alreaddy. She'll be jellis too, Im sure of t he sed. And when we ceme up to her ma sed, CGood afternjon Mrs. hows little Milderd? She's just as perfeck as she looks, if possible, Mrs. Shooster sed. Izzent your little grandson looking a trifle thin? she sed. Its quite possible, I bireve he's been exercizing too much, ma sed. You know he's crawling now, yes indeed, the moment we &t him on the flocr he’s off like a flash, she sed. Little Milderd never made any attempt to crawl, Mrs. Shooster sed, and ma sed, Izsent that too bad, but then some babies are naturelly a little slow by nature, Id be ony too habpy to bave little Willle give her an exhibition, it mite stir up her little faculties of imitation, she sed. Well the truth is, little Milderd started rite in wawking without bother- ing to crawl ferst, Mrs. Shooster sed. Its reely most unusual, everybody says You must come in & moment and see_her, she sed. No thanks, reely I must keep Willle out in the air, ma sed, and Mrs. S8hoos- ter sed, But I insist, its reely a re- merkable site, Benny will mind Willie & few minnits. And ma went in her house with her and pritty soon she came out agen and we ki on going, me saying, Did she reely it, ma? and ma saying, I suppose some peeple would call it wawking, but she hung onto a chair the whole time like a drowning man. Its what Id call a very underhand methed, and any baby that starts using subterfuges so erly in life izzent to be trusted very far in my opinion, she sed. a granmother never runs out of argewments. i Rolls.

Household Methods BY BETSY CALLISTER. Pieces of Soap. ©Odds and ends of soap. What do you | do with them? Small pieces of soap left in the kitch- en may be put in a soap shaker and used for dish washing.

Wash the pleces to remove superficial dirt or dust. And make two batches of soap—one of the scented soap which may be used in the bathroom and is useful in east | shampooing and the other of unscented m{: which may be used in the kitchen or laundry.

Strain off any scum that rises and stir until the mixture is smooth and even. When it 18 well melted and smooth let cool slightly and then pour into jars or tins and let cool, cover and set aside for future use, If you like ou may add a little borax dissolved n water—not more than a teaspoon of borax to a quart of the jelly.
